Recent developments in laser marking equipment allow manufacturers to run wire and cable production lines at rates up to 400 meters/minute. For manufacturers, this development means they can increase production rates while also maintaining the excellent quality of their laser marking. It is non-contact, abrasion resistant, permanent, and can be integrated into continuous production lines. 

CLEVELAND – Consumer, healthcare, transportation and building products manufacturers now have a high-performance material offering both excellent properties and sustainability in one cost-effective, vinyl-based material package. PolyOne’s Geon™ BIO Flexible Solutions, formulated with a bio-derived plasticizer also complies with phthalate-restrictive regulations such as California’s Prop 65 and the Consumer Product Safety Initiative Act of 2008 (CPSIA). Compared to other flexible vinyls, Geon BIO materials feature a wider processing window and enhanced thermal stability, which may reduce production costs by improving manufacturing efficiency.

Steven Chai, general manager for Asia, PolyOne ColorMatrix, said, “In today’s consumer-focused world, consistent product quality is fundamental to gaining consumer trust and brand loyalty. This technology reduces the risk for quality degradation in UV-sensitive products. Steven Chai added, ”Our unique modeling capability helps streamline product development and increase speed to market by giving customers a clear indication of performance based on their specific application.”
